Chapter 179
Downstairs in the banquet, Christian was stunned. He was about to deal with Matilda’s mess. Now, his little granddaughter had cleaned up for him.
Ewan was also overjoyed. All he wanted in the beginning was a smooth divorce with Matilda. Now, he could easily kick her out of his life. The marriage for twenty years had planted seeds of grudges and resentment, especially after he knew the crazy things she had done behind. But seeing her and Nixon end up like this, Ewan’s anger dissipated.
At the same time, Lea’s face was filled with smiles and gratitude. She was the one who had avenged her family.
As for the fact that she was not related to the Berry family by blood, Ewan had long forgotten about it and he would not believe a single word that Matilda said today. “Lea, happy birthday. Don’t let it stop right there.”
Lea paused. Why are you so happy suddenly?‘ Indeed, it was easier to be happy when one was heartless.
Then she looked at Christian, who walked to the podium and said calmly, “Sorry, I’ve wasted a lot of your time. Please forgive our fault.”
The guests shook their heads and expressed that they appreciated it. Matilda had been too ridiculous and mad enough to destroy the Berry family, but fortunately Christian had an awesome granddaughter.
Not only had she offset the negative effects, but also brought new hope to Berry Airline. Now Riverview Hospital also became the new part of Berry Group’s business empire.
Where did Lea collect the funds? Needless to say, Christian must have paid for it. “Now, I announce that I will transfer 30% of the Berry Group’s shares to my granddaughter, Lea.”
Lea suddenly looked up at him in disbelief.
At this moment, she was very sure that Christian did not believe Matilda’s paternity test and also knew nothing about her background. What was more, he even decided to make her the heir of the Berry Group. After some turbulence in the stock, Matilda and Helen were eliminated, so her shareholding was the highest.
Christian saw the disbelief on her face and encouraged her, “Don’t doubt it. Grandpa trusts you. You can do it well and give Berry Group a better future.”
Previously, he had only planned to give her 5%, but today, he was certain of one thing. She was really the developer of the artificial brain. No matter what Riverview Hospital’s founder team made up of, her participation was enough to prove her capability. There were also Conrad University’s principal and professors who convinced him that his granddaughter was an amazing genius.

Chapter 179
A warm current surged in Lea’s heart, irrigating a cold and desolate corner of her mind. Christian really treated her as his biological granddaughter. Now she, Lea Berry, also had a family.
Ewan was shocked. It turned out that even without Matilda, his father still wouldn’t choose him: He was still regarded as useless garbage who could not bear the significant responsibility.
“Congratulations, Mr. Berry! Congratulations, Miss Berry!” The guests all exclaimed repeatedly.
“Mr. Berry, what an outstanding your granddaughter is. We’re so envious.”
“Miss Berry is already so successful at such a young age. Her future is limitless.“–
“Lea, we are too old now. You have to take care of us in the future.”
They weren’t exaggerating. She possessed 30% of the shares and was Christian’s only granddaughter. It was equivalent to inheriting the Berry Group. She would be the first female tycoon in Vaporleon City one day.
Whether it was in the medical field or the aviation business, if anyone could cooperate with her, they could earn endless wealth.
Instantly, Lea became a new star that everyone wanted to befriend. Christian was overjoyed by the praise and could not stop smiling.
Lea also smiled faintly. She understood what these people were thinking. Flattering was normal in business. She did not want to make things difficult for others. Working with other people was also mutually beneficial.
When everyone saw her friendly and humble attitude, they were even happier and their relationship became much closer.
“Lea, come here.” Christian gestured and took her hand, leading her to the microphone. “It’s your birthday tonight. Say something to your guests.”
Lea realized for the first time that his old hands were so warm and gentle. Her palms were trembling slightly, and her eyes were wet. She blinked and composed herself. Then, she went forward and smiled at everyone. “Ladies and gentlemen, no matter who coming tonight. I’m so touched to have you
here.”
Instantly, she heard a thunderous applause. “Happy birthday, Lea!”
The banquet officially began.
“Lea, I prepared a birthday present for you. Here.”
“Me too. See it.”
Please take uncle’s gift and best wishes.”

People gave her gifts one after another. Many people had prepared two sets of gifts, one for her birthday, and the other for her academic admission.
“Go and accept the gifts. Christian kicked Ewan, who was in a daze like an idiot. Ewan had been reduced to that of a servant on this occasion.
Then Jason brought the bodyguards to collect gifts.
Suddenly, the crowd went into an uproar again. “Wow! Who is that young man?”
“He’s so good–looking. He’s an actor, right?”
“Maybe not. “He’s more than that.”
“Vaporleon City doesn’t have such a good–looking young man, right?”
Amidst the exclamations, Les
looked up and saw a man walking down the stairs. He was dressed in a fashionable black suit. With his tall figure and exquisite haircut, he looked so elegant and noble. He stared at Lea with warm affection. This was the price who walked out of a painting and step by step towards the woman he loved.
He was Alfred.
Last time, he had appeared at Christian’s birthday banquet, but not many people had seen his face. Moreover, it had been nighttime under the dim lights, so no one remembered him. Therefore, this was the first time Vaporleon City’s celebrities had seen him so clearly.
Lea held her breath and stared at him with her moist eyes. ‘Alfred is here to celebrate my birthday. So he has always been there.
“It’s Mr. Alfred Andrews from the Andrews family in Iverton!” The crowd was excited again.
“So he is the heir of the Andrews family! What?”
